*What is pectin? Pectin is used to jell jams and jellies. You will find it in the canning section of your grocery store (where they sell jars and lids for canning your own fruits or vegetables). It is made from plants and is a soluble fiber. Suitable gelatin option for vegetarians and vegans.

juice gelatin recipe our instructions adapted from the back of the Knox Blox box

This is an easy dessert recipe for kids who want to help. If you have a little assistant, have them sprinkle gelatin over cold juice in a large bowl. Let stand 1 minute. Add hot juice and stir until gelatin completely dissolves (the box says stir for 5 minutes but it really just takes a few stirs, less than a minute). Pour into a pan, a large bowl, individual glass containers or jello molds. Sometimes I let it cool slightly before pouring it into small paper cups with fun designs printed on them. Refrigerate until firm. If you use smaller individual-size containers the gelatin will set in as little as an hour. Small dishes or cups are what we always use—our jello enjoyers want the gelatin to set quickly so they can eat it quickly!
